What does the LF have to do with this?

We are here, on the mailing lists, working with everyone.  Just test the
-rc releases we make and let us know if they work or not for you, it's
not a lot of "coordination" needed at all.

Otherwise, if no one is saying that they are going to need these for 6
years and are willing to use it in their project (i.e. and test it),
there's no need for us to maintain it for that long, right?

thanks,
